Woad Leaf Powder

Woad Leaf Powder (Isatis tinctoria) is the ancient European source of natural blue dye — the original indigo of history. Ground and processed into fine powder, it delivers delicate blue tones ranging from sky to denim shades, depending on technique and fabric type. While less intense than indigofera indigo, it produces uniquely soft, smoky blues beloved by traditional and modern dyers alike.

Benefits

Woad offers heritage and character that modern indigos can’t replicate. Its tone is softer, more natural, and beautifully nuanced — perfect for heritage-inspired textile work or sustainable fashion collections. Each piece dyed with woad carries history and charm, evoking centuries of European craft.

Ideal Applications

  • Hand-dyed denim or woven cotton textiles.
  • Silk scarves and wool yarns in soft sky-blues.
